Pixel Rom Port for OP3 possible? - OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers

Hey Guys.
Was wondering if anyone would be willing to port a original Pixel Rom to our device?
I always liked the Nexus roms and the Pixel phones seem pretty similar to the OP3 so that might just make it possible?
Let me know if anyone is willing to try
Thanks!

Please move this thread @steven
And please don't post Q and A threads here

Does the world end if he/she does? Bit harsh for someone who probably didn't know where to post this question.

From what i see, his reply has been very polite buddy, and second OP is senior member.
Let me make you an analogy, if your dog take a poop in your usual breakfast plate, it doesn't make the world end buddy, but it does make that plate ****ty.
Good thing is this have been moved to this q/a graveyard, and he doesn't recieve my response before.
Trust me, i can make a lot of worse version for both - this reply and thread reply.

Guys! I just wrote this thread on my phone via Tapatalk and was simply in the wrong forum. Of course this belongs into the Q&A section. MY BAD. Now do me the favor and behave! Some XDA members really need to go and let their steam of elsewhere!
Now please just reply ON TOPIC or don't bother at all. Thank you!

If u are that desperate to get pixel ROM just try my pixel ui mod ul get most of the pixel UI
And just remember that next time don't create Questions answer threads in other sections

Dude you need to chill down. We all make mistakes. OP is asking a simple questions and yet you are not helping in anyway.
@op - I don't think so but you can try Resurrection ROM or any other pure Android ROM and flash Google pixel mode which would give you a close look to pixel.

To answer the question, a true Nexus/Pixel ROM port is possible but extremely hard and time consuming and not always worth it.
Not trying to insult any devs but custom Roms not based on OOS are not worth it. There's always stability issues with certain apps and performance is very good but inconsistent (random lags here and there that are really annoying). Camera quality is not even close to OOS (unless you're on sultan's ROM but that's cm13).
You're best bet for this phone is Experience ROM or FreedomOS (based on OOS 4.0.2) and F2FS format for /data + Blu spark kernel. Best performance/battery life combo there is in all situations

And I'm just telling him not shouting at him it's just an advice
Well I told him to use pixel UI mod
And u think that's not answering

Hey thanks for the replies guys.
The Pixel Ui isn't the reason I want the port. My main issue with the current Roms out there is that 90% of them are based ok lineage OS which atm has way to many bugs / issues imo. I know some issues you can fix by flashing this zip and that zip and maybe another zip here. Not the biggest fan of that.
As for the OOS based ROMs: I am currently on one of them. Sadly i am also one of the people that has huge issues with WiFi / network stability.
I opened this thread cause I saw that the Samsung Galaxy s7 has a working Pixel rom Port and so does the nexus 5x. There are more phones that have working ports too and all of them are not as similar to the pixel phones as the OP3. That's why I was wondering why no one has ported it yet and if someone would be willing to try.
Thanks guys!

[info] Basic Informations about HOX, sense and the universe

Hy community,
I once was a newbie on XDA (and still am ^^), but with the time I understood more and more things, now I want to give back and condensate the Information I got to answer questions I see often in multiple threads.
there are more and more questions about sense and roms and SOFF and if your phone can control your mind if you take an image of a brain as your wallpaper...
So here is the
officially unofficial "Question's you better not ask"
thread.​
Feel free to add your 2 cents in the comments, I will try to keep this updated with your ideas
The goal of this thread is to inform the users, in order to avoid them asking those things and getting angry answers or blocking real dev work on threads.
Does this AOKP/CM9/AOSP Rom have sense ? :silly:
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
No ! It's like if you were asking if Linux has windows in it, if a Ferrari has a Dacia in it...
Explanation : Sense is a framework, it's like wrapped over the android OS. AOKP/AOSP/CM9 based roms are free of this framework and based on the original google android source code.
In the same idea, a sense rom doesn't contain CM9, but you can make it look like with themes or a "de-sensing".
For this exact reason, you need to wipe your phone before installing a non-sense rom over a sense one (or the other side) (even if you should wipe when going from one rom to another, sense or not.
Does this AOKP/CM9/AOSP rom contain the sense cam
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
No, It has to do with what is written in the first explanation.
Explanation : Most sense apps and widgets are linked to the sense framework, some more, some less, making it theoretically possible to port those apps to a fully sense framework free environement. However, the camera is solidely attached to the framework, it may be possible, but don't hope for it soon
Can I flash the boot.img from "rom A" on "rom B" ?
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
And still the answer is : NO ! you will end in a bootloop.
Explanation : The Boot.img contains many stuff like kernel, ramdisk... and this ramdisk is different for most of the rom's and a boot.img will only fully work with an adequate ramdisk.
However, you can repack the kernell with the zImage tool which is to be found in the forums.
Can I flash the modules of Kernel A while using Kernel B ?
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Get used to it: no...
A specific module is for a specific Kernel. The end.
What is a RUU ?

the RUU (ROM UPDATE UTILITY)

Hope I could help some of you

It's obvious you've spend 'a lot' of time with the intro of this thread.
But all you write is old news as all is written already, 'instructions enough'.
To my opinion this thread won't help anybody because people who don't like to read won't read anyway,
so this thread is another clutter, nothing more to my opinion as it don't bring anything new.
Mods please close?
Thanks!

When I started on XDA I was searching for a recap like this, people not wanting to read throught hundreds of pages of a well-filled thread is not meaning they won't read a recapitulative thread...
Is a post trying to help others such a pain for you ? If this can help one person and avoid a single useless post on a single thread I will be more than happy.
I hope you can revise your judgment...
You just created a extra thread, nope I won't revise my statement.
Probably you have good intensions, but to my opinion this thread is clutter and a waist.

I agree. This is the strangest forum I've participated in on XDA. Here's some personality categories I’ve observed.
* Narcissist’s - in spite of a topic or point being posted multiple times in an already open thread, people feel that they're experiencing of an issue is somehow more important than anyone/everyone else's. They have no problem starting a new thread saying "I know this has been posted before, but..." Hint: before you post, ask yourself are you posting for the benefit of others or for yourself?
* Newbies with Attitudes - Not picking on this user in particular but this is an excellent example.
RADLOUNI said:
I am totally furious about the fact that HTC released an ICS phone with a GB kernel. Sorry if it sounds negative but this is plain deception, and disrespect to its base of customers. Other vendors without mentioning the name has released their phone with a decent ICS kernel.

Not only is it naive, it's wrong. Had it been posted as a question "what's the difference between the 2.X and 3.X kernel?" the poster would have realized s/he's uninformed. Hint: instead of coming out with both guns blazing, ask a question rather than making a statement if you're not sure about what you're talking about.
* Martyrs - Yes, the One X has launch issues. More than it should. They're all well known by now. Similar to the narcissists, the martyrs relish reiterating the same complaints amongst themselves in page after page in a thread. Hint: No one here can help you. Rather than ***** pointlessly figure out how to get your problem resolved. I'm not having any problems but it took me all of five minutes to find the two most senior HTC execs in Europe that oversee customer service so those with issues could have someone to write to and seek help. Hint: Don't just post "*****es," post potential remedies.
There are other personality categories unique to the One X forum but you get my point. I love my One X but sure wish it came with SGS3 forum.

A RUU is the full ROM installation utility from HTC, using it will fully reset your phone to the same state when you bought it (only thing it won't change is the fact your phone is locked/unlocked if I remember well), can't tell you what it wouldb be in Samsung-land ut probably samsungs Odin flashable base rom.
Hope I could help

Sweet. :cyclops: ^^
Hopefully when this thread has 56 pages people still bother to find the time to have a search about the answers.
And remember if you just search the word >> 'RUU'...... (top right corner of XDA )
But your time and effort is much appriciated I ques.
Time for me to live this thread it's own live and 'unscribe' as I'm getting nuts of the notifications already.

That it seems to be your pleasure to ruin an effort to help people which might not be as well informed as you are, to criticize without any reasons they way I spend my free time trying to help (even if I only can offer a bit).

Nope I'm not trying to ruin an effort, I'm just trying to make a point clear.

I find this especially galling considering that between us Laurentius26 and I have 1,600 "thanks" and you have a whopping 16. Your heart is in the right place, your approach needs work.
This might help new users to get them started @ XDA
To OP: Good work mate .. This is how most of us started
Closing thread as we have already guides with the same topics you kindly posted here.
Besides going off topic

shall i go for it ?

shall i exchange my phone for an S6 as long as its looks like LG isnt going to support unlocking for any further models and i really want to install AOSP based or CM based roms mainly to get better battery life
i am offered an S6 for my G4 h815p and some cash so what do you think guys ?

sorry for annoying guys it tagged twice due to an internet problem
waiting for ur replies and i hope anyone else with an expert who see the post can help
If you want to have aosp based Roms s6 could be the wrong phone, I heard from a cm developer for the note 4 that exynos and cm Roms are not good compatible together. I would inform before buying one
Sorry but Samsung isnt that open too. I would switch to Nexus or something more dev-friendly .. But well LG and Sammy are pretty similar development side..

Hi,
You might want to read the forum rules regarding bumping threads. You are allowed to bump your thread once after 24 hours with no replies, not every couple of minutes. You can always edit your first post next time instead of making more posts. It gives the appearance of impatience.
Thanks for your cooperation

Better off going a 6P if you want open.
Sticking with my G4, used all sorts of Android devices and the G4 is the only one that I feel like I could actually stick with.
Admittedly I haven't used any Nexus devices (their cameras have been renowned as terrible until recently) but I have used the stock Android experience and it feels lacklustre to me.

Porting pixel

Now that we have kernel sources can we port the pixels camera or do we still need a few more things? Also when can we expect to see some roms that use the kernel sources for this device?
Well the kernels were only released 5 minutes ago...

Hi guys , I have talked with a owner of Nexus 6P | Nexus 5x | Pixel | LG V20 and Developer of roms for this phones , and he makes the WETA Rom for this devices.
The first talk I had with him I asked him if we could get him a Mi5s if he could do a Nexus/Pixel experience for our Mi5s and seeing that he has a Pixel and some Nexus I think he would be perfect to Build a nice Pixel Rom for our devices.
But to do this we would have to make a Funding so we could get him a Mi5s.
What do you think about this?

It would be cool. And it can be arranged.
But look, the developer buys the phone, makes the firmware on it, what differences will it have from AOSP? A camera from a pixel?
I think the main thing that people are interested in is the creation of a mod that replaces the standard image processing libraries with similar ones from a Google pixel.
WETA rom will also be interesting, is it the focus on the audio capabilities of the phone?

I think we could ask him if he could port the Pixel Camera and it's capabilities to the Rom seeing that the Pixel has the same Sensor.
But yeah basically the WETA Rom as I understood it is focused on the Audio Capabilities and in Stability.
But the only thing is that we would have to join forces so we could all just donate 1€ or something like that and get him a Mi5s.

I don't personally know him , I just reached out to him when I bought my Mi5s so I could get an ideia if any Dev with a Pixel would be interested in developing Roms to the Xiaomi Mi5s
And he answered me with a positive note back at that time , now I have reached out to him again to see if he is still interested in making a Rom to our Mi5s in case we could get him one and as soon as he answers me I will ask him about the camera. Because as all of us , I too want a Pixel perfect Rom for our Xiaomi Mi5s , it would be the Cherry on top of the cake.
I would also make a bit of donations for his phone
i used weta on my previous gs6 and i must say, stable and good rom. Dev was quick in answering in that days..
I have faith in him
Hi there , guys I'm sorry to have taken so much time to answer you, but this is because the Weta Dev stop answering me I don't know why.
I have talked with another Dev's from the Pixel Section and 3 Devs have answered me with a positive atitude saying that they wouldn't mind to try to Make a Pixel rom for our Mi5s.
Are you guys still interested in trying to get Money to buy them a Mi5s and seeing with they can do it?

I guess first we should choose which one of the Dev's we want to try it seeing that we have more than one.
Second I think would be to make a new Thread to see how many people can donate and see if we could get the money to buy the device.

Why is there only 1 custom ROM while we are 2-3months in already?

There is Scorpion and thats it? I thought it will be as good as with OnePlus or even better?!
Because the stock OS/ROM kicks so much ass. IMO

Go compile one then, it's not that hard to do. You can't just expect developers to feel obligated to everyone here on XDA. Devs usually compile and work on things when they have time away from their daily duties.
In fact, there's actually multiple ROMs, but they're not posted here on xda yet.

Same thoughts here. Stock and a custom kernel is all I need.
LOL. What a completely entitled thread. I'm surprised no one has called out the OP.
It's people like you that push away our development. Put a bad taste in a talented persons mouth who wanted to make a rom but not for those who feel entitled to one. What does your post accomplish? It's not going to encourage more development that's for sure.
As others have said there's more ROMs out there, but I wouldn't be surprised if the reason they haven't posted it here is because the community here on XDA can be toxic when people group together to complain about the lack of ROMs or how what is available isn't good enough. Be happy that we do have a rom here, or go out and build the rom yourself.

honestly i think we just need a good few magisk modules and the *need* for modified stock roms goes away, we'll still have AOSP roms being developed for. just have some patience
Probably not the best approach to getting more ROMs is calling out the forums for lack of them for a device that is still "new". Take a breath and be patient, sir. These things take time.

I'll actually agree with this. This Pixel 3 XL I own is the first time I've run Android stock in a long time and actually like it. My device is on the Pie December update and only rooted with Magisk, a few modules like Active Edge or ViPER4Androi0d installed, and ElementalX kernel and performance and battery life is quite good. Unless some serious custom ROMs like ResurrectionRemix (which I loved on my Nexus 6P) make it over, I probably won't even bother with a custom ROM.

Before you ask the question "why are there so few ROMs?" perhaps ask the question why you haven't learned how to create your own and contribute to this site.
Last I checked Google is not giving these devices away...they cost $900!!! Have you thought that maybe most developers chose a different device?
This thread has run its course.

I don't think he's retiring.
Last time i heard about him he still look passionate by it's work
Maybe he's just busy. Give him time.
Yes he did for a while
You could have at least checked his profile before opening a stupid thread.

Well, you could have posted this thread under Questions and Answer's to begin with as this thread brings nothing to the table on the Themes area since it is just a mere question. But yeah, some people will just call something "stupid" straightforward, just don't mind them.
